A review of remote sensing technology for lower tropospheric thermodynamic (TD) profiling
is presented with focus on high accuracy and high temporal‐vertical resolution. The …

The height of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABLH) or the mixing layer height (MLH) is a
key parameter characterizing the planetary boundary layer, and the accurate estimation of …

Multi-year ground-based remote-sensing datasets were acquired with the Leipzig Aerosol
and Cloud Remote Observations System (LACROS) at three sites. A highly polluted central …

Low-level mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) are common in the Arctic. Both local and large-scale
phenomena influence the properties and lifetime of MPCs. Arctic fjords are characterized by …

Numerical weather prediction models operate on grid spacings of a few kilometers, where
deep convection begins to become resolvable. Around this scale, the emergence of …

The motivation of this study is to verify theoretical expectations placed on ground-based
microwave radiometer (MWR) techniques and to confirm whether they are suitable for …

Thermodynamic profiles in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) are important observations
for a range of atmospheric research and operational needs. These profiles can be retrieved …

The land surface and the atmospheric boundary layer are closely intertwined with respect to
the exchange of water, trace gases, and energy. Nonlinear feedback and scale-dependent …

Löhnert, U., E. van Meijgaard, HK Baltink, S. Groß, and R. Boers, 2007: Accuracy
assessment of an integrated profiling technique for operationally deriving profiles of …

The Jülich Observatory for Cloud Evolution (JOYCE), located at Forschungszentrum Jülich
in the most western part of Germany, is a recently established platform for cloud research …
